Hey, let's take the PowerBlock and make it into a street tire – easy right? Sure, if 10 months of testing and 3 mold changes is consider easy. Why the trouble? Well, as it’s been a while since Tioga developed a street tire they obsessed over the details to make sure they got it right. So the seemingly minor changes over its cousin, they actually took some major effort. But you’ll appreciate the obsession. 
If you think you need to go some shady way to get a good deal on DC shoes, think again. No need to step outside in the cold either. Over at the DC webstore they have many models in several colours up to 50% off! That's the price cut in half. Worth a vist? Damn right. So many models to choose from....

The Snafu Splitter Stem on my bike has been holding up nicely. Not sure if I should brag about it because I don't want it to snap on the next session, but I'm convinced it won't otherwise I wouldn't run it. My bars haven't moved once either which is another reason why this stem gets the thumbs up from me. The CNC machine did its job to make it light as well. Here's the spec:-Angle cut edges and external vents to reduce weight

2012 Class Change Breakdown. In 2010 The Am Flatland Circuit catered to BMX flatland’s community of amateur riders. You gained points toward a year end title and their were two classes: Expert and Master. In 2011, we extended the circuit to include a Pro Class. We also ran a couple of experimental classes: Veteran and Beginner. For two years so far the class distinctions have been a work in progress. Our goal has been and continues to be to involve and encourage as many riders as possible to come out and compete, and when they do we want them to feel like they are competing against their 
Simple Session 12: 31 March – 1 April 2012 / Tallinn, Estonia The annual Simple Session BMX and skateboarding contest, one of Europe’s most anticipated action sports events, will this year take place on 31st of March and 1st of April in Tallinn, Estonia. In addition to the slightly moved springtime dates, the Simple Session event series is revamping it’s brand and setting sights on a more international future. For years, Simple Session has been the highlight of Europe’s BMX and skateboarding wintertime calendar, taking place in the beginning of February. This year, the contest has moved to early springtime – the organisers hope that the date shift will be welcomed as a great chance to experience the amazing city of Tallinn in a bit sunnier light and warmer weather.
Whereas there will be no big changes in the overall concept of the event, the contest has adjusted it’s name from Simpel Session to Simple Session.
